GDMenu/OpenMenu HD Theme Manager (All-In-One Package) v1.25

Update (14/08/2025)

Introduced a bug in the previous update that was causing GDMenu to freeze, That should be resolved now.

Update (13/08/2025)

Added a few GDMenu only options for those that still use it, These options allow you to even further simplify your theme/setup by allowing you to do the following:

• Hide the disc image that shows up for each game.
• Hide the game info for each game.
• Move the game list to the center of the screen, Which in combination with the other options allows you to have just a central list and nothing else for a super clean look.
• I've also included a theme which will go with those options.

Update (10/08/2025)

• Removed support for the GDMENU_SD manager as there is just no point in supporting that anymore when you can use GDMenu Card Manager to achieve the same, It's also easier on me as i don't have to support two managers that require two different methods for the bin file alone.
• The black screen issue people were having with gdmenu should now also be fixed, I found what i believe was causing it and tested multiple themes on gdmenu with multiple colors and it all worked.

Had an issue with v1.23 stuck in a loop of checking for an update so i've fixed it and reuploaded it.

Update (14/03/2025)

• Disabled changing the cursor color for now as there seems to be an issue that i can't find right now causing gdmenu to black screen, This will only effect people who still use gdmenu and choose to customise the font color but i've disabled it for now, Changing the other colors still work though.
• Added an extra check at the end of the process to make sure 1ST_READ.BIN is preset in the gdmenu folder as when not ran as administrator this can happen, Now if that's the case you will see the error message prompting you to try again rather than still bring up the message saying it was complete, I have also tweaked everything to try to make that happen less.

Update (09/03/2025)

• Added a software updater so it's easier to stay upto date in the future.
• Updated OpenMenu box art again thanks to dubcity.

Update (07/03/2025)

• I believe i've fixed an issue with it not moving the altered 1ST_READ.BIN over when it should resulting in gdmenu not being built correctly and causing a black screen.
• Updated GDMENU Card Manager to v2.0.1
• Updated OpenMenu box art thanks to dubcity.

Update (08/10/2024)

• Added the ability for you to add -offline to the 'GDMenu HD Theme Manager' filename, for example 'GDMenu HD Theme Manager -offline.exe' to bypass the updater and go straight to the theme manager if you wanted, or if you are having issues launching it on linux because of the updater.
• Made sure all the current OpenMenu themes and ini files are included (all themes upto today's date) as well as having 10 custom OpenMenu themes already pre-setup for you just like i've done with the GDMenu style themes for OpenMenu, Now when you boot up 'GDMenu Card Manager' and add OpenMenu to your sd card it will automatically add all these themes i've setup or you can change them to alternatives beforehand if you want.

Update (26/09/2024)

• Changed the PVR color format in both apps from ARGB1555 to RGB565 as per recommendation from derek (ateam) which should result in a nicer looking theme image.
• Fixed an issue where trying to overwrite a theme could result in it not creating the pvr's in 'Easy OpenMenu Theme Creator'.
• Fixed an issue where if you exit out of the 'Current Themes' window in 'Easy OpenMenu Theme Creator' without applying a theme it resulted in the main themes list being messed up until you reload the app.
